Talk:Where's the beef?

Um...
... I thought the phrase was well-known in colloquial US speech long before 1984, and meant ‘What’s your complaint? What is the dispute you are raising?, where ‘beefing’ meaning grousing, kvetching, etc. No?
 * "What's your beef?" (meaning "What's your complaint?") had been around, but not "Where's the beef?" (Meaning "where's the substance?"). - Wrassedragon (talk) 16:02, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
